You seem a good player, so I want to say something about how you deal with Brahms's motivic usage.
Just a preliminary indication: in bar 3 you think that the written F on the beat is the central note. But actually, the phrase begins on the D, and the central motif is the ascending third. It repeats in the next bar, E to G, and then is stretched to a tenth in the following bar.
This rising third is a constant feature throughout the movement.
Brahms's music moves between preferring barlines and preferring the first notes of phrases that begin against, often just before, barlines. So the D, as part of the rising interval, is more important than you think.
You don't need to worry about representing the barline, because the piano does that.
Have a look.
